The White House on Friday announced an order to stop taxpayer-funded “critical race theory” training sessions to government workers in various U.S. executive branch agencies.

“The days of taxpayer funded indoctrination trainings that sow division and racism are over,” Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russ Vought announced on Twitter. “Under the direction of @POTUS we are directing agencies to halt critical race theory trainings immediately.”
